Latest Review

The hostel is in a rural HK village. The public transport is really good for a connection to Tai Po Market MTR but not suited for backpackers. The taxi was 80HKD from the MTR station.
It's about 90 minutes to downtown Hong Kong so the location is not good if you want to explore downtown HK. That said, if you like walking, biking or water sports this is the place for you.
One thing I noted was that while you have big backpack sized lockers, the doors themselves have no locks on them..
